Can anyone tell me a good site explaining how to take care of live plants in an aquarium? Also, what are the best types of live plants/moss to have in with newts?
 
id suggest java moss since it does not require alot of light....just my 2 cents worth ;)
 
If you do not have a light source for your newt tank, the following plants can still be used.
Java moss, java fern, willow moss, and the toughest of all plants Anubias.
I use these plants in all of my aquatic set ups.
No special care or feeding is needed for the above plants to flourish, and all but the Anubias are eagerly used for newts when egg laying.
If the tank has a growlight, then many more types of plant can be used, but try to steer clear of any plants needing a lot of light or specialist feeding.

    with axolotls would I basically have to keep buying and buying new axolotls to prevent inbred breeding which costs a lot of money??

    Not necessarily but if you’re wanting to continue to grow your breeding capacity then yes. Breeding axolotls isn’t a cheap hobby nor is it a get rich quick scheme. It costs a lot of money and time and deditcation

    Would Chinese fire belly newts be more or less inclined towards an aquatic eft set up versus Japanese . I'm raising them and have abandoned the terrarium at about 5 months old and switched to the aquatic setups you describe. I'm wondering if I could do this as soon as they morph?
